From d7971051e4df825e0bc11b995e87bfe86355b8e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2013 09:21:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] USB: serial: fix interface refcounting Make sure the interface is not released before our serial device. Note that drivers are still not allowed to access the interface in any way that may interfere with another driver that may have gotten bound to the same interface after disconnect returns.
